HALYCH DISTRICT Halych District Is Situated on the Border of Two HALYCH DISTRICT Halych district is situated on the border of two physiographic regions: the Ukrainian Carpathians and southwestern part of the East European Plain. The territory belongs to Naddniprianskyi agro-climatic subzone. It is characterized by the moderate continental climate and mostly plain. The district is located in the north of Ivano-Frankivsk region. Halych district occupies an area formed at the border of two regions: Iwano-Frankivsk and Ternopil. From northwest to southeast the district crosses the Dnister river. From south to north-west is the highway of international importance: Mukachevo-Ivano-Frankivsk-Halych Rohatyn -Lviv and railway Ivano-Frankivsk – Lviv. Geographically area is very conveniently located at the crossroads of transport routes. І.Main Parameters of Halych District. - Area – 703 sq km - Population – 43,900 - Density – 62/1 sq km - Share of urban population –8,3 % - Share of rural population – 91,7 %. ІІ. Administrative and Territorial system - city - 1 - urban settlement - 1 - rural setlement – 67 ІІІ. Place of Halych district in Ivano-Frankivsk Region Territory in percentage: 5,0% Population in percentage: 3,2 % Industrial production in percentage: 0,6 % The most developed industries: timber manufacturing industry and agriculture. The whole territory of the district is a bright testimony of unique and original culture peculiar to Oppillia and Prycarpattia. The beneficial geographical location and favourable climatic conditions contribute to the tourism development. That is right! Here you can see both ancient monuments and soft foothills of the Carpathian Mountains. There we have the shallow Dnister River, which is not like itself in Podillia, and the silence of the calm province. Have you ever rafted down the Dnister River? Nowadays the Dnister River becomes increasingly popular among the enthusiasts of active and interesting vacations during leaves and days off. Rafting down the Dnister River is the best way to renovate physical and mental energy after exhausting weekdays, to plunge into the beauty of the unexplored wildness of the banks of the Dnister River and to devote oneself to the rhythm of nature. The rafting has all hallmarks of the nice summer holiday: the unity with nature, journey in the floating rhythm of the calm flow of the Dnister River and relaxation dynamics. The region is rich in the main natural resources: lands, forests and natural recreational territories. They account for the 96.6 percentage of the natural wealth in the district. Casova (Hora) Mountain is the biggest steppe area of Western Podillia. The botanists describe it as an etalon of the western steppes in the region. Casova Mountain flora includes more than 300 species of the vascular plants. There are numerous relict, endemic, rare and endangered plant species, such as feather grass, Pulsatilla patens, spring Adonis, Platanthera chlorantha, etc. CITY OF HALYCH - DISTRICT CENTRE City of Halych is 24 km (by road) and 26 (by railway) of Ivano-Frankivsk. City of Halych consists of three parts: Halych-Centre, Halych- Hora and Halych-Zarika. Halych is the city that gave its name to the whole region and is known worldwide. The first mention of Halych dates back to 898. There was a destiny and it was one of the most powerful places of the Ukrainian statehood, the princely town, emerged here, on the banks of the grey-haired Dnister River, to which the annalistic Limnytsia River and Lukva River run in. Halych, a city of sub-township level, is located on the banks of the Dnister River. Here in Halych the flaming Ukrainian spirit was cherished. It was hardened in fierce battles for our land, forged by the will of our brave and wise Halician princes, surrounded with glory of Halician regiments, and acquired a new lease of life in the words of Halician chronicles and gospels. City territory – 2481 hectares Population – 6164 KEY INDUSTRY OF HALYCH DISTRICT Industry The industrial sector of the district is represented by the enterprises of timber manufacturing industry as well as production and supply of electricity, natural gas, heat and water.

  • Sacred Places in Lviv – Their Changing Significance and Functions
    PrACE GEOGrAFICznE, zeszyt 137 Instytut Geografii i Gospodarki Przestrzennej UJ Kraków 2014, 91 – 114 doi : 10.4467/20833113PG.14.011.2156 Sacred placeS in lviv – their changing Significance and functionS Małgorzata Flaga Abstract : In the paper, issues of a multitude of functions of sacred places in Lviv are considered. The problem is presented on the example of selected religious sites that were established in distinct periods of the development of the city and refers to different religious denomina- tions. At present, various functions are mixing in the sacred complexes of Lviv. The author tries to formulate some general conclusions concerning their contemporary role and leading types of activity. These findings are based, most of all, on analyses of the facts related to the history of Lviv, circumstances of its foundation, various transformations, and modern func- tions of the selected sites. Keywords : Lviv, Western Ukraine, religious diversity, functions of religious sites introduction Lviv, located in the western part of Ukraine, is a city with an incredibly rich his- tory and tradition. It was founded in an area considered to be a kind of political, ethnic and religious borderland. For centuries the influence of different cultures, ethnic and religious groups met there and the city often witnessed momentous historical events affecting the political situation in this part of Europe. The com- munity of the thriving city was a remarkable mosaic of nationalities and religious denominations from the very beginning. On the one hand, these were representa- tives of the Latin West ( first – Catholics, later on – Protestants ), on the other hand – the Byzantine East.

  • Appendices I
    Appendices I. Archival Sources Archival research for this monograph was conducted in Lviv, the former capital of Galicia, in 1983. To orient myself in the rich archival holdings of this city, I benefitted from the unpublished manuscript of Patricia K. Grimsted's forthcoming guide to Soviet Ukrainian archives and manuscript repositories' as well as from a number of published works.' Plans to use archives in Ternopil and Ivano-Frankivsk were frustrated, as was the plan to use the manuscript collection of the Institute of Literature of the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR (in Kiev). Work in the Austrian archives in 1982 did not uncover sources of direct relevance to the subject of this monograph, but the Viennese archives remain an important and little-explored repository of historical documentation on Galician history. The richest collection of unpublished sources on the history of Galicia during the Austrian period is located in the Central State Historical Archives of the Ukrainian SSR in Lviv (U Tsentrainyi derzhavnyi istorychnyi arkhiv URSR u rn. Lvovi; abbre- viated as TsDIAL). The Central Archives have inherited the papers of various Galician government institutions and major civic organizations. Unfortunately, there is no published guide to these archives, although a number of articles describe aspects of their holdings.' The papers of the Presidium of the Galician Viceroy's Office (U Haiytske narnisnytstvo, rn. Lviv. Prezydiia) are contained in TsDIAL, fond 146, opysy 4-8 (and presumably others). Particularly valuable for this study were documents dealing with the publication and confiscation of political brochures and periodicals, including , Patricia K.

    SLOVO, VOL. 26, NO. 1 (SPRING 2014), 39-40. Ukrainian West: Culture and the Fate of Empire in Soviet Lviv. By WILLIAM JAY RISCH, Pp. 374. Cambridge: Harvard University Press. Harvard Historical Studies, Volume 173. 2011. $49.99. ISBN 9780674050013. Soviet Lviv as a Shifting Phantasmagoria In Ukrainian West: Culture and the Fate of Empire in Soviet Lviv, William Jay Risch provides a detailed and nuanced account of the transformation of the Western Ukrainian city of Lviv, known as L’vov, Lwów, and Lemberg. Risch describes the transformation of Lviv from a center of the Halych-Volyn Principality of the Crown of the Kingdom of Poland, to a multiethnic town in the Habsburg Empire, and finally, to a unique Western Ukrainian Soviet city in the post-war Soviet Union. The story of Lviv’s transformation, he argues, does not follow a neat, linear path, but rather, is one complicated by shifting narratives, discourses, and allegiances. Despite Soviet state efforts to foster a ‘generic Soviet Ukrainian identity’, Risch argues, literary, linguistic, and cultural movements coalesced to shape a ‘specific Western Ukrainian Soviet identity’ of the city of Lviv (p. 4). In the first section of the book, Risch outlines post-war Soviet politics and the transformation of Lviv as a ‘Soviet city’. After the death of Stalin, the Soviet secret police chief, Lavrenty Beria, issued a report to encourage ‘localism’ and soon thereafter, the Communist Party of the Soviet Union passed a resolution calling for the election of ‘locals’. In keeping with the resolution, the first Party secretary for Ukraine, L.
